I agree that preparing is a good thing, but I would refuse to put that into production.
-
As already discussed in another thread, using a zero release for production is usually not a good decision. Always wait for the dot 1 release and then decide.

Which implementation of this is easier to understand?
Uwe Raabe replied to dummzeuch's topic in Algorithms, Data Structures and Class Design
While reading the first one I thought that I would implement that with an Exit instead of using the IsValid variable. So I vote for the second. Less code, less problems. Well, only Thomas can know that. -
@Jim McKeeth As it was a Mercurial repo it went down the drain when Bitbucket dropped Mercurial support. It seems I missed to convert it to Git, but I will see what can be done timely to make it available on GitHub again.

This bug was introduced in V15.0.11 when local variables started to detect generic types. Fixed in V15.0.47, which is now available for download.
-
I can indeed reproduce that here. Investigating...
-
Why??! (they've changed the way main menu works in the IDE).
Uwe Raabe replied to Lajos Juhász's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
Cannot reproduce here. -
Where are the FD Enterprise Connectors hiding?
Uwe Raabe replied to David Schwartz's topic in General Help
Indeed! I had several occasions where some of these connectors came in handy, but the licensing ruled it out right from the beginning. -
Can you file a QP report for those controls?
-
That comes pretty near to Option to design in Screen PPI but save in 96 PPI Definitely not: https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-35301?jql=affectedVersion %3D "11.0 Alexandria" AND text ~ "designer dpi"

Where is the Welcomepage directory in Delphi 11 Alexandria?
Uwe Raabe replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
It is a different level of flexibility. At the bottom left of the new Welcome Page is a button that allows you to move, resize or even delete the available plugins. In the future this will be extended to add additional plugins and even write your own ones. -
Delphi 11 Alexandria: New Edit Window
Uwe Raabe replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
No problem over here: -
I thought about a global setting, that is taken when the project setting is empty, and omit populating the project settings with the hardcoded default.

Calling inherited in Destroy
Uwe Raabe replied to pyscripter's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
I can imagine the bug reports when some day TObject.Destroy actually gets some code and no one will remembers this oversight. -
Are you using Delphi 11 with mainstream projects?
Uwe Raabe replied to Clément's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
Is there anyone using any Delphi version in its initial release state? (🤡Nice try, but even D7 is widely used with at least one update...) -
Menu captions with images are hard to read under Windows 11
Uwe Raabe replied to Tom Mueller's topic in VCL
Indeed. I also add am IFDEF to error out when compiled with a newer Delphi version. Even if the problem is not fixed yet, the tweaked source is most likely no longer up to date anymore. -
Can you show some actual and complete JSON content?
-
Delphi 11.0 has a different form Caption offset than Delphi 10.4
Uwe Raabe replied to Tom Mueller's topic in VCL
A fresh VCL forms application shows a Delphi icon in front of the window title. What did you do to remove that? -
Yes, it is called Build Groups: Do you know Build Groups?
-
There are several people complaining about too many new things added to Delphi in the last years instead of old bugs being fixed. Now I am confused...
-
It is as well possible that it shows up here just because it is installed.
-
Well, here it is:

Please write to Embarcadero to get a free Delphi 11 edition for Andreas Hausladen
Uwe Raabe replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
IIRC, Andy has been offered a free license at least twice, but he reclined. -
Interfaces defined in base classes
Uwe Raabe replied to santiago's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
It is not! A cast tells the compiler to treat the given memory address as if it were of the casted type. To get a supported interface out of a class instance one has to call QueryInterface, which in the end is what the AS operator does. -
Good suggestion! I will note a feature request for it.
